The launch of a ‘next generation’ coalescing agent
Oxfilm 351 is a virtually odorless coalescing agent with a boiling point of 351°C, so it has negligible contribution to a coating’s VOC (volatile organic compound) content, says the producer. The agent is classified as non-VOC in Europe because its…
This ball valve accepts multiple input power signals
The electrically actuated Polypro valve will automatically accept virtually any input power signal. Designed for both water and chemical applications, Polypro valves are are available in sizes from 3/8 to 2 in. The electrical actuator can be assembled to the…
Additional control options for these valves
Spira-Trol control valves have extended options to ensure that the valves can be optimized for a specific customer application. Pneumatic-piston actuators have been added to the diaphragm and electric actuator ranges. The free-float design provides users with longer stem-seal life…
Diaphragm pumps with variable eccentric drives
Seybert & Rahier The new piston diaphragm pumps of the series R 510.1 and R 511.1 (photo) achieve delivery rates of 65 to 1,900 L/h at pressures up to 220 bars, making them suitable for a wide range of applications,…
Two Sealants for High-temperature Oleaginous Process Fluids
This firm has synthesized two advanced fluoroelastomer (FKM) materials, Resifluor 500 and Resifluor V8T41, as sealants for oily and greasy substances. The FKM materials offer superior high-temperature water capabilities and stability in destructive chemicals, particularly solvents. While previous FKM seals…
Metal-Seated Valve Design for Critical Service Applications
This firm offers the Cartridge Valve (photo) with a mechanical-seal design for critical service applications. The patented valve utilizes aspects of ball valves, gate valves, and even triple-offset butterfly valves to protect the sealing surface during valve operation. A tapered…
Save Energy with this High Efficiency Motor
The High-Efficiency Motors for blowers lowers the overall energy costs, resulting in an amortization, in most cases, after 2 – 3 years, says the manufacturer. The motor also provides a number of advantages over alternative products, such as: lower thermal…
Integrate These Brass Ball Valves into this Firm’s Piping Systems
The Series FBV-3-Press, two-piece, full port, brass ball valves are designed for use in this firm’s ProPress piping systems. Its integral press fitting tailpieces are designed to be quickly and easily pressed into ProPress piping systems and are rated at…
